r/hurricane is a subreddit with 96k members. The community frequently discusses hurricane, lala, disturbance, tropical storm, and storm, and the most common flair used is ts | 35-63kts (39-73mph), tropical weather outlook (two), category 1 | 64-82kts (74-95mph), category 3 | 96-112kts (111-129mph), and discussion.
Hurricanes can be a source of stress/anxiety, and can unfortunately be life changing for some. This is a community of Weather Enthusiasts, Tempestologists, or just human beings who aim to provide helpful resources for Tropical Cyclone preparedness while discussing and tracking active storms. A Tropical Cyclone is a spiraling area of thunderstorms rotating around a Low-pressure area with a closed low-level circulation that produces heavy rain and high wind gusts.
